Rex Ryan is still making predictions

Rex Ryan can no longer predict that his team will make the Super Bowl. So he may as well predict what’s going to happen to the teams that actually made the playoffs.

“First off, the Ravens are going to win this game,” Ryan said Friday on WFAN when asked for his general thoughts on the AFC title game. “I think Terrell Suggs might be the difference in this game. . . . Let’s face it: I’m cheering for the Ravens.”

Ryan has spoken endlessly about “owning” New York, but he now seems to be on the Big Blue bandwagon. Ryan also predicted the Giants would win.

So, essentially the Patriots and 49ers should feel pretty good about themselves.

With his team out, he can’t put his own, so now he’s putting other people’s feet in his mouth with his pre-game talk. And really, nothing more than other people’s feet could make Rex happier. Except maybe a Super Bowl toe ring.

As long as he will not be calling any time outs for the Ravens during this game.

I hope he is right with his predictions but I love it when he puts his foot or his wifes foot or some stranger he met on craig’s lists foot in his mouth.
——————————————————-
Love it! He also let’s strangers put his wife’s feet in their mouths amongst other things…

I saw some of their videos before the NFL goons swept the web for evidence, epic and strange stuff bro!

If everybody who is glad Rex doesn’t coach their team jumped at once, the Earth would go off its orbit.

This guy just needs to hear himself talk even though his team has been done for month and nobody cares what he has to say, including his own players.

hmpennypacker says:Jan 20, 2012 3:28 PM

Teams take on the personalities of their coaches. And the NY Jets are a brash loud mouth who make a lot of noise but get nothing done. I can’t think of one coach who ran their mouth as much as this and actually won a super bowl. Losers talk. Winners act.

Lol great last line, just what everyone probably thought when reading this article.

armchairqb says:Jan 20, 2012 3:30 PM

I’m sure New England and San Francisco fans are thrilled that Rex didn’t put the whammy on their teams.

You blowhard…..it’s ravens niners man! The nfl loves a good story and 2 brothers in the Super Bowl is a good story. Giants got a case of bubble guts, they might soil themselves on the fueled and Brady got a career 55 passer vs ravens.

This article is a bit of a reach. Rex was contacted by local radio and asked for predictions. What is he supposed to say? It’s not like he was running around trying to be heard during the playoffs, they called him.

He did take a shot at himself though when asked about the giants/niners game “I’m sure no Giants fan wants to hear me say it, but i think NY will win that game”

He also talked about how the V. Cruz 99 yd TD in Jets/Giants game was turning point for both teams down the stretch. It was a pretty good segment, and I can’t stand Mike Francesa

I like Jets bashing as much as the next fan but this article is a complete reach. You dont have to hand pick parts of an interview to make Rex look silly, he does a good enough job at it himself.

he also predicted he’ll be 30 pounds heavier next season. JUST SHUT UP………

bunkmcnulty says:Jan 20, 2012 3:36 PM

I would have rather read more of how Ed Reed doesn’t like Joe Flacco.

Unlike many, I am not prone to curse on PFT, but this a-hole needs to shut up. Rex, we gave you up for adoption 3 years ago. You have new parents now. You don’t belong in any conversation about this game.

Rex also said that he’s now going to work on studying offense to become a more complete, hands-on HC, that he was going to think twice before making bold comments, and also acknowledged that his predictions may have put more pressure on the team among other things all while shutting up one of the most obnoxious radio hosts in the Tri-State area by taking every single ounce of failure the Jets experienced in 2011 and putting it entirely on his shoulders, and taking on all the blame.

But of course, taking a man out of context (AGAIN) and mocking him for answering questions he was asked under the title of “Rex Ryan is still making predictions” gets more page views than “Rex Ryan vows to change in order to become a more successful coach” does, doesn’t it, PFT? I would have had more respect for your journalistic capabilities if you had come out with “The 2011 New York Jets season was Rex Ryan’s fault” or “Rex Ryan drove by Metlife Stadium during Giants playoff game for motivation”, because he also basically said both of those things today, but no, you focused on what Rex thought the score of the games was going to be? Hacks.

thewizardofbs says:Jan 20, 2012 3:49 PM

Ha! I thought the Dolphins had problems trying to find a coach but we could have ended up with Rex. I am thankful at least Rex is under contract so they cannot get him. He’s such a great coach we even beat the Jets with an interim coach.

weepingjebus says:Jan 20, 2012 3:49 PM

“Hey Rex, Belichick is better than you!”

jagsfan1 says:Jan 20, 2012 3:51 PM

Why do I discount everything he says as coming from a fat arrogant blowhard – but when he says Baltimore will beat the Pats I want to believe him so bad and value his opinion?

joelvis72 says:Jan 20, 2012 3:52 PM

I predict that every last one of Rex’s future predictions will be dutifully reported by PFT.

thumper00 says:Jan 20, 2012 3:53 PM

If the pats win the superbowl will loads of lard kiss Belichicks SIX rings (four as head coach)..
Rex is a waste of fresh air!!!!!!!!

garyman1 says:Jan 20, 2012 3:54 PM

Rex, you might want to DVR both those games.
Please pay close attention to football teams that are well coached and play together as a team.

The way his (Ryan) predictions are going I would say the Patriots are a sure thing.
Never let Rexoboy give you a horse to bet – stay far away from him at the track.
Suggs has a face like an ashtray no butts about it! No wonder he hates Tommy. Matt Light is going to fix Suggs’ face for him.

The Ravens are screwed now! Seriously, though, he can’t say the Pats are going to win. That’s the equivalent of raping a nun as far as the NY media is concerned. Let’s hope his predictions for other teams work out better than the ones he makes for his own. Suggs could wreck the game if he plays well, though. That is a fact.

billybatty says:Jan 20, 2012 4:31 PM

Where’s brandon jacobs when you need him, to tell fattyboombalatty to shut up. Oh yeah he and his accountant are figuring out how much money he has left to live on after retiring sunday due to post concussion syndrome.

I tried to not click on this thread for fear out of exactly what happened. Rex predicting my team to win.

noquickreactionshere says:Jan 20, 2012 4:47 PM

Rob Lowe just tweeted that Rex Ryan is fat…

cousinrk says:Jan 20, 2012 4:51 PM

Really nice journalism nitwit. Rex was on a radio show and was asked who he thought would win like every other football coach or analyst has done this week. Is he the only person who has been asked his thoughts on the games this week? Stop this hack reporting that we get everyday.

For you clowns who didn’t hear his radio interview, go to WFAN.com and you will hear Rex admitting his faults and things he has to improve upon. He’s very honest about himself and that’s not a surprise. But most of you want to just follow along with your “rex is a fat, egomaniacal jerk” storyline. So I’m sure you won’t check it out. Keep living in your own dream worlds

kacapaco says:Jan 20, 2012 4:52 PM

That is what sore-losers like Rex big-mouth Ryan do when they have no team to cheer. Cheer against a team that kicked his butt.

I 2nd what cousinirk said. Listen to the interview and you will hear Rex admitting his faults and vowing to evolve. Promised to tone it down.
Please listen, it was a very good interview and Rex showed a lot of humility. That fact that this crap is what PFT posted from that interview shows you that they only want to sensationalize Rex.

“Never seen a team do so much talking and so little winning in one season.” — Peter King, 1/20/12

Hey, fatso, nobody cares what you say, especially now that your team didn’t get in the playoffs. I understand that you can only talk inbetween meals, Rex, but still shut up and get out of the headlines please. Thanks.

Once again fat boy, no one cares what u think, you are an 8-8 coach who hasn’t won anything. Please eat yourself into some terrible fat loss reality show and leave the NFL cuz u suck at coaching, your qb is awful, you have no authority over your team and ur basically the fattest idiot Narcissus in America.

seannymo says:Jan 20, 2012 5:24 PM

i’m not a huge espn fan, but at least they got this story right…unlike the TERRIBLE reporting job you guys do here just to get page views…

first of all, he was ASKED who he thought would win. a prediction, yes…but not in the way you make it seem to be.

Also, if you actually listened or read other quotes from the interview you can see how humbled rex ryan felt after this awful year for his team. keep drinking the kool-aid all you PFT readers who have no other access to the NY market besides what you read on here…oh wait, you DO have access but you choose to believe what people are feeding you. stop believeing everything you read on ONE website.

Munchausen Syndrome is an attention-seeking personality disorder which is more common than statistics suggest. Munchausen Syndrome, named after a German soldier renowned for exaggerated tales, is a predominantly female disorder in which an emotionally immature person with narcissistic tendencies, low self-esteem and a fragile ego has an overwhelming need to draw attention to herself and to be the centre of attention.

Rex and his team are out of the playoffs yet he still feels the need to comment on what’s going on and getting in the spotlight.

He should try and figure out what drug was put in his drink to make Tony Sparano his offensive coordinator.

Sorry Rex but you are irrelevant for the rest of this season so I would expect not to hear anything coming out of your mouth until next season.

Keeping the Ryan tradition alive= Sucking as a coach, shooting your mouth off and wearing out your welcome.

Father Buddy SUCKED as a head coach.

Twin brother shoots his mouth of as to how great the D will be in Dallas. THEY WERE AWFUL.

Rex proclaims 3 Superbowl wins, doesn’t even make the playoffs.

They will all be unemployed within 2 years

vincentbojackson says:Jan 20, 2012 10:30 PM

Based on history, if Rex says it we can safely assume the opposite will happen.

I came away from listening to this interview thinking Rex is actually a bit humble and thinks highly of two great players in Young and LT.

I didn’t come away thinking he called a radio station to mouth off his picks.

As a Pats fan, I like the dude and the comments above don’t surprise me at all -Ryan can come to my barbq any day- I would say too bad this stuff gets posted but then my post would be deleted like all the others

Glad to know Rex is still alive and well — thought maybe he choked on a toe.

Seriously, with all the talk the last couple weeks regarding his qb and wr and all the discord in the locker room…where has he been? We heard from everyone else in the world about his team and its meltdown, but no word from the HC, Mr. “Nowhere Man”.

Now he talks? Maybe instead of predicting play-off wins, he should publicly address how he’s going to get his team under control.

pondbridge says:Jan 21, 2012 4:44 AM

Thank you Rex for providing bulletin board material to inspire the Patriots to win on Sunday. Here’s a bulletin Fatso: Players coaches are for (or less) years and out in the NFL.

Thanks, Ryan. NY has been yours for two years, but now it’s back to its original owner. Big Blue!

micktanner says:Jan 21, 2012 9:23 PM

Rex is not as dumb as he looks…and, the man knows his football! There WILL be a SB XXXV rematch….Ravens vs. Giants!!! Sorry Jim H., Bill B. & Lady Brady….maybe another year for you 2….this SB is for the best two left….that WILL be Baltimore and New York…two city’s that have a L O N G history…dating back to the REAL Colts, The BALTIMORE COLTS!!!!

micktanner says:Jan 21, 2012 9:33 PM

Chew on that Niner’s and Patsie fans! You guys have know idea what you are in for…a MAJOR disappointment for sure!

micktanner says:Jan 21, 2012 9:38 PM

NY BIG BLUE vs. PURPLE PAIN in Indy on Feb. 5, 2012!!!! And who better then to present the SB Lombardi Trophy, than the greatest WR in Pro Football History….# 82, Mr. Raymond Berry, the MVP of the 58′ Title game…the GREATEST GAME ever played!

Karma….it’s a Mo F’er ain’t it S.F. & N.E.???

gingerkid2000 says:Jan 23, 2012 9:55 AM

Hey Rex can you do us Pats fans a solid and predict the Giants to win the SB?
